Panama Canal shares dropped 40 francs last
week Yesterday they recovered - francs.
II would be interesting to know Just how much
Of this recovery was due to the election Of
President Garnet. He is supposed to be par
.iculary friendly to De LcsocpsS scheme; but
then prices on the Boulsc IN general showed
advances yesterday.
If the police can succeed in cleaning out the
gangs Of so-callcd "sawdust" swindicIs that
make their headquarters III this city and prey
upon giasping but gullible cOuntIymcn, they
will do admirable piece Of work. They
seem to have gone about the job IN real earnest
Two good arrests were made yesterday and
some valuable booty was obtained The
sWindlcrS' books contained The names Of mum
Der Of victims, mostly in the Wet. One man
wrote that in order to " do the businc,S" quickly
he would have to mortgage his lOgs. IN spite
OF publicity this form Of swindlng continues
to flourish The activity Of the detectives al
this time will probably cause the operators to
make a change of base. When they come baci,
here againt the police should DC on the alert for
them.
Trench opinion outside Of Paris has had time
to express itself upon the choice Of a President
Evidently the majority of the people are we'll
satisfied. Probably it is not the fact that VI.
Garnet was elected that gives so much satsiac-
ton as the circumstance that the crisis was
passed so easily and the succession accom-
plishcd with only shOr-livcd cbuilitlOn OF cX-
element. Elsewhere than in France the new
President is regarded very much OF an I'M
known quantity. This makes his future action
the more interesting. Our correspondent i'll
Paris says in his dispatch to-day that the new
Cabinet is likely to be one of concentration and
not of combat. This means that every effort
will be made to maintain the spirit Of union
among the Republicans. NJ. Goblet will prob
ably be made Premier, but the Radicals will
not be satisfied unless they have one of their
number in an important place.
The Lth Congress got under way yesterday
with little friction. Apart from anything it
may actually accomplish circumstances com
binc TO render it memorable. Its close We
syDchronize with the termination OF a century
Of National existence under the Constitution,
and while it is in existence Presidential! c'cc-
ton will take place. Yesterdays proceedings
In both branches were Of the quiet order In
